I LOVE THIS NAIL PLACE! When I get married in 10 years I want them to do my wedding nails. I will update this review, but for now here is what I have to say... - BEAUTIFUL shaping of the nails all the time -LOTS of dip nail polish options -Fairly priced ($45 for dip manicure, taking off and putting on) -Pretty easy to make an appointment - Every nail tech is so talented and patient and beautiful To be clear, I live in the city and my friend and I will drive 30-35 minutes out of our way to come here. Northwestern students, take advantage and show this place some love! read more

Bring headphones they play music so loud and play the radio so the commercials are on and ruin a relaxing vibe - every time I'm there I try to tell the manager about Spotify and the options for commercial free music read more

Terrible customer service and pricing is ridiculous. The male manager is rude and sneakily upcharges for random basic things without telling you. If you aren't looking to pay $50+ for a simple manicure or $35 for color change pedicure, try Studi-O or Soliel right nextdoor. read more

This is my very favorite nail place. They did an excellent job with the previous owners and the current owner owners. my pedicures last forever and they're so relaxing. Everyone is very polite, and the place is very clean and very aesthetically pleasing. read more

Only been here twice but each time just gets better. Kayla does an amazing detailed job with my dip manicure and it lasted almost 4 weeks perfectly. Really satisfied they look beautiful!! There's also a million colors to choose from! read more

Imperial Nails & Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - Glenview, Illinois

I think this is my first time writing a 5 star review on yelp. This was one of my best experiences at a nail salon. I randomly just walked in today and let them know I had to pick my son up from somewhere in 45 minutes and they said they can still take me and do my manicure and pedicure at the same time and they did get me out in 45 minutes. I especially really appreciated the person doing my pedicure. She really took her time and did a great job. I liked it so much I bought 2 gift cards for family members. Would definitely go back! read more

What else to expect: - easy parking in the small lot in the back if you don't get a VIP spot right outside - all of the guest chairs strangely have tennis balls cushioning the bottom of each leg, like senior citizen walker style. Don't want floor damage, I guess? It kinda takes away from the spa ambiance. - a lot of the polish in stock looks like it's been sitting there for a while (very settled). This is probably one of the main knocks for that 5th star. - you're offered a beverage when you sit down! Yay for cold water on a sweltering 95F summer day! My tech Annie did a meticulous job on my pedi, and I was extremely happy with it! read more

I've been to this nail salon multiple times and they do such a great job! They're polite and Have a so many color choices for no chip. Kevin was sweet and helped me pick my color- which I loved! He took his time doing my pedicure and made sure I liked the color on my nails before actually moving forward. Truly appreciated his sincerity for my nail color. Also, the nail polish stays on for well over two weeks, and I've never had it Chip. Highly recommend. read more

Imperial Nails & Spa - No chip manicure - Nail Salons Near Me - Glenview, Illinois

I so wanted to love this place, but unfortunately I cannot recommend it. The positives are that the salon is clean and the staff is friendly and professional. That said, my no chip manicure chipped in less than one week and that is a deal breaker for me. At that point, might as well just pay for regular polish and it will chip in the same amount of time. No chip chipping that fast is indicative of application error or poor application technique, because when done right it should last minimum 2 weeks, but in better quality salons 3-4 weeks. read more

Love this place! They do beautiful work and the staff is very friendly. First of all, the salon was very nice, and very clean. We were greeted with a smile as soon as we entered the front door. While picking my nail polish color, I was advised that any color I picked also had a matching color available in "no-chip". So for those that like to match your toenail color with you fingernail colors, this is an added bonus! No need to look at those annoying colorwheels that other salons make you look through! You can just pick the color from the bottle. I decided to go with the spa pedicure and the no-chip polish. The man that did my pedicure took his time and it felt amazing. After cleaning out my nails and cuticles and scrubbing the bottom of my feet, he rubbed my feet and massaged my legs for what seemed like a full 5-10 min per leg. This is rare as all the other salons I've been to try to rush through this process. The lady that did my no-chip Mani was also wonderful and great at her job. She did very neat work, did 3 coatings of color and 2 clear coatings which made the color look great. After that, she even gave me a back and shoulder massage. I love this place! I'm very satisfied with the results. They have a special going on right now. $35 for a spa pedicure + manicure and $55 if you want the spa pedi and no chip mani. Whenever I need some pampering and a job well done on my nails, this is the place that I will come to. read more

I stumbled on this little gem of a nail salon when I needed a manicure and pedicure for my son's special event. There "Grand Opening Special sign" in the window caught my eye. While trying to find the rear entrance from the back parking lot; I bumped into two ladies that works at the hair salon next door. I asked them if they were familiar with the salon. They raved abt the great job the salon does especially Jenny. I can see why! Everyone is super nice, very professional as they greet every person that walks in, and the salon is extremely clean. They give everyone there own nail kit. You can take it with you or they throw it away. I had a relaxing pedicure in spa massage chair that's gives great massage that can be custom to your comfort level. I'm very particular with my pedicure. Jenny did a nice job ensuring I was completely satisfied. My mani was done just as well. So much so that I treated my son to his first manicure. Jenny is also awesome with nail designs which is no additional charge. Never came across another salon that offers this-such a deal! Her suggestions on polish colors and designs are geared towards your comfort. I love bright colors and usual designs. Normally, I like to see the design before they do it but I stepped out of my comfort zone and allowed Jenny to choose both my colors and designs. Love it is an understatement ;). She's awesome! Through my rants and raves, my girlfriend Judy decided to give them a try when she had a special occasion to attend. Her experience was exactly the same. She stepped out of her comfort by getting a design. It was her first one and she got a cute little flower. This is both of our new go to place for our mani and pedi. read more

Wow. I am so impressed with this nail salon. Found it after asking a woman who did her nails as they were so modern and on point. Usually acrylic nails are not as natural of a look that I personally like. Kelly did my nails. She is very professional , attentive and did e act what I had asked for Hanna did my pedicure. Same here , very attentive and professional. My pedi is perfect I am not a big reviewer but felt compelled to recognize this business read more

Discrimination as soon as I walked in the door I was given funny looks and immediately turned around and told that they take only appointments even though the door says walkins and when I called over the phone I do sound like a Caucasian woman they said they except walkins and told me to come on in and when I arrived I was turned around read more

Okay so this is the second time I gave this salon a try. The first time they messed up my nails but I gave it another try. The lady VIVIAN is absolutely horrible and her nasty attitude makes it worse. At first I kindly asked her to make my nails shorter and she gave me an attitude about it and then since its my birthday I asked her to put some rhinestones which she messed it up and when I asked her to fix it she goes like " I think you shouldn't get design because you keep changing your mind" Vivian is an example of someone who should NOT work at a salon. Avoid this salon at all cost unless you want to have a terrible experience like this!!!! VIVIAN, You really need to understand that when working at a salon you need to he respectful to customers. At the end of the day you are not working for free and when customers kindly ask you to make a correction you should do it! read more

Kenny did an amazing job on my nails! They have the apres or gel X manicures and have so many colors! The place was clean and everyone was friendly. Highly recommend. read more

well let's start with the fact I was a great customer for many years. my job has me traveling extensively so i'm nit on a 2 week appointment. last few times in the salon Kelly and her niece Annie were not friendly. it got to a point where I was told i'm not a regular customer so i can't request Kelly. well Kelly I found a salon that is so customer service oriented and my girls were great. you are either in a rush or angry when you come to work. you double and triple book your clients. you have no people skills. You salons are pretty but your customer service and work has a bit to be desired. Good Bye and maybe you should read the reviews you get from unhappy people who have visited your salon oh and. y the way you lied to your customers saying you are the manager and not the owner read more

I went back in December. I asked for a gel overlay on my nails. I'm certain they did acrylic overlay and I got charged $65 or so. I guess it would have been ok to pay that much if I actually got gel overlaid on my nails and not $20-30 acrylic. read more

Very nice experience !! Went in to get a dip and a pedicure and they turned out fantastic ( expect for the part where my pedi sadly got ruined when I put on my shoes . Takes a while for the polish to fully dry sadly we thought it was dry but as soon as I got home it was a mess lol) Everyone there seems really nice and they make u feel welcomed!! Great nail salon :) read more

I've been searching high and low for a nail technician that would fulfill my expectations. When I found Kelly my nail game changed forever and I couldn't be more ecstatic!!!!! She listens to what you want and makes your vision come to life. I tend to get "coffin" nails which are pretty difficult to shape, so the fact that she nailed it (literally) made me super happy! read more

I came across this place by chance and I am so happy that I did. This nail salon is great. The people are wonderful and very accommodating. The salon itself is very clean and I believe everything is brand new. I was told that it's under new management now and it seems to be working well. This was my second time in and I couldn't be happier. I get them done by a young man there and he is just wonderful at what he does. He takes all my crazy Pinterest pictures and makes them a reality haha. They are always having some sort of grand opening sale so definitely worth the money. A must go to, if you're looking for a new salon read more

I have gotten over 10 sets of acrylics from this place and they always turn out amazing! Yesterday i went in with a reference photo, and the nails they produced looked even better than the photo. We booked a 6:30pm appointment and didn't get seated until 7:30. It was totally worth the wait. But if you are on a strict time schedule make sure you let them know before hand. They are super busy and just want to be able to give each of us exactly what they want so the wait can be lengthy at times. Don't be afraid to ask for little changes or anything you need, they are very understanding. read more

I use this place to get my nails done but yesterday I went here to get a no chip manicure and the lady cut my cuticles to the point that they were bleeding and are still sore a day later. She attempted to put some oil on it when it was bleeding but it hurt even more. I went back into the salon the next day to show them and the lady tried to tell me that I had dry skin and that was the reason for my cuts. I was very calm and explained that the lady was cutting my cuticles and they started bleeding and she said that never happened. I politely asked for a refund and she said absolutely not and said it's my dry skin. I'm still in pain and will not be returning to Imperial Nails because of the customer service and the way the lady handled things. read more

Service was top notch. I appreciate them doing both my mani and pedi for me an hour before closing. They pay a great attention to detail too! Only problem was they didn't have matte top coat for regular polish, and the matte top coat for their no chip wasn't very "matte" at all. Still love me nails tho!!! read more

I have lived in Glenview for a while now and it took me several years to find a nail salon I consistently liked. Imperial Nails has been my go-to place for a couple of years now. My nails are consistently well done and the staff is so friendly and attentive. They quickly pick up on what you prefer and make sure your experience is positive. They are a popular place and do get busy but I have never had to wait an extended time for my appointment. It really is consistently a great place. Love them! read more

So I am always very loyal to my nail salon - and when I find a good one, I stick to it. After being disappointed at my previous location for service that just kept declining, I decided to try Imperial based on the suggestions of several friends. I was beyond satisfied! I made an appointment and was quickly seated upon walking in. Almost immediately I was offered something to drink. They had a selection of magazines and NBC Sports was on as well - something for everyone! The atmosphere is very serene! There are TVs and quiet music playing, but the location is spacious and there is not much noise at all! There are 4 rows of chairs for manicures, and each row has two seats... making it ideal if you want to get your nails done with someone. Kelly does an amazing job and makes sure every nail is the same length, that you are well polished, and that everything looks amazing. She helped me settle my color dilemma- and was able to suggest the perfect color to several others while I was there. No Chip + Pedi special is $55! Regular Mani and Pedi is $35, I believe! read more

Have an appointment? Ok no problem. That person you booked with will be with you in one hour. Third time this happened. First, made appt w Tammy. She's behind can someone else do it? Second time, whoops she's off can someone else do it? Third and final time. You made appt w Tammy? She'll do it after your pedicure. Well my pedicure ended at 5:00. She's still with another person and there's no way I'm waiting another 40 min. This is unreal. So sad bc they were great for a couple years. I've referred multiple clients here. No more. And do yourself a favor Kelly, get rid of the attitude. There are tons of salons in the area that would love my business. Yelling at me in front of the entire salon as if I was in the wrong is so incredibly disrespectful. You messed with the wrong client. read more

Looking for a clean nail salon? Takes their time and does the job and makes an extra effort? Want to feel pampered and not rushed? It was my first time here tonight and in two years of living here I can say I've never been more satisfied. Although they were busy my service of no chip mani and pedi was NOT compromised. My feet and hands were being done at the same time with so much patience and detail! I'm telling you, you must come here! What attracted me was the few reviews that were good, the method of payments, and cleanliness of the salon in pics. Give this a try! It's amazing. Tami and her husband were amazing! This is my to go salon now! read more

I've been here multiple times over the past few years and I've got to say that they're been consistent with my expectations every time. I feel as though this place should receive more recognition since the quality of their work is so great. Every time I've received a french manicure here, it's always been better than the last one. They sterilize all their tools before every service and they even give you a hand and forearm massage! It's SO relaxing after a day of typing away at a computer. During the hand massage, they use a vitamin E capsule along with the lotion and it away with a warm hand towel. (I think they do this with every manicure they provide) With my french manicures, the woman always does a great job. I am INCREDIBLY picky when it comes to how the whites show up. If someone does them crooked or shows too much white from my natural nail, I will make the technician do it again until they get it right. However, this is never the case for this mail salon. When you get your nails dried, your technician also gives you a back massage. * The service is always great. The women who work here are sweethearts and always exchange pleasantries with you. *Everything is CLEAN. This is the most important thing to me since I'm a bit of a germaphobe when it comes to places that have a high volume of customers. *The decor is beautiful is a simple way. Nothing too overbearing about it. NOTE: You can pay by credit card but they only take cash tips! read more
